Has anyone noticed that more and more fashion stores are sticking little bits and bobs near the til area to tempt us? Top Shop, Forever 21, H&M etc all seem to do it. I guess it makes sense, a bit like having the gum and chocolates by the till at the supermarket! I rarely shop […]

Whilst some people revel in romantic gifts at Valentine’s day, others are a little bit more pedantic. You know, the ones that go, DON’T BUY ME ANYTHING, DON’T WASTE MONEY Followed by, WHY DIDN’T YOU BUY ME ANYTHING? NOT EVEN A CARD!? For those of us who have loved ones that say they only want […]

Sick of Beauty Boxes yet? Well let’s face it, it’s not how pretty the box is but the quality of the content. With that in mind, I present to you the the newly launched ‘The Complexion Perfection Kit’, a collaboration between Latest in Beauty and The Session School. The box features 6 make up products […]

A dear reader, Ines, emailed me to ask what cosmetic brands she should look out for whilst she was visiting the UK (London). Although I am not a Londoner, I managed to come up with a few suggestions…I am a encourager, after all! If anyone else can think of places she could look for British […]

I always think that if there’s a good time to stock up on your beauty electronics (hairdryers, electric toothbrushes etc.) it’s near Christmas times, because they always go on offer! I bought my beloved electric toothbrush when it was half price 2 years ago! Braun Series 5 is a high end range of razors with […]

I get about 9 million emails from Strawberrynet (once you subscribe, you never can seem to unsubscribe) and every now and then I do have a look at the newsletters to see what bargains they have. Their prices are much higher then they used to be, and they’ve added on the option of paying the […]

For my honeymoon I went to Greece where I found SEPHORA! Hello! Aside from that, as I was really hot and uncomfortable the whole time I did end up doing more shopping than necessary. Over in Greece they have lots of Apivita and Korres around even in regular mini pharmacies (which I frequented for bite […]

I got an email from the people over at Vouchercodes.co.uk setting me a challenge of putting together a Christmas Beauty Preparation kit for £60 or less. The idea is to pick out products that will save us the trouble of going to the salon or paying a professional for their services! So here are my […]

The thing about glittery eyeliners is that they can look really pretty, or really cheap and tacky. It’s the same for the textures; I’ve always found very glittery eye pencils to be quite hard and scratchy, and very hard to use on my delicate eyes. I quite like the now discontinued (I think) Nars Chubby […]
